NED vs SL T20 World Cup 2022: Head to head stats and records you need to know before Netherlands vs Sri Lanka match
The Netherlands vs Sri Lanka match on Thursday will decide which team will become the first from Group A to advance to the Super 12 round of the T20 World Cup 2022.
The Netherlands are at the top of the Group A points table right now with four points from two matches. Namibia and Sri Lanka hold the next two positions, having won one of their two matches thus far. The UAE are last with no points from two matches.
The chances of the UAE making it to the Super 12 round are negligible. Sri Lanka and Namibia have a better net run rate than the Netherlands. So if Sri Lanka defeat the Netherlands, the Asia Cup 2022 winners will progress to the next round, and if the Dutch team wins, they will seal the top spot.
The loser of the Netherlands vs Sri Lanka match will have to wait for the result of the Namibia vs UAE game to know their fate. Both teams will be keen to win tomorrow and confirm their places.
